MINISTER FOR URBAN SERVICES

Question No. 458

Government Service - Motor Vehicles

Mr Kaine - asked the Chief Minister on August 1991 -

What control mechanisms are proposed to limit the use of motor vehicles by the ACT Government Service, under the ALP Government.

Mr Connolly - the answer to the Members question is as follows

It is appropriate that I respond to this question as the subject properly belongs to my portfolio rather than that of the Chief Minister.

The responsibilities concerning the use of ACT Government vehicles are set out in two policy documents

"Policy for the management and use of ACT Government 200 series and private plated non-SES self drive vehicles"; and

"Policy for the management and use of ACT Government SES private plated vehicles".

It is the responsibility of the ACT Fleet Manager, as the single manager for the ACT Fleet, and Agency Heads to ensure the provisions contained in the policies are met. In addition, Agency Heads are responsible for ensuring that employees make the the most economical, effective and efficient use of ACT Government Service self-drive vehicles.

Under the policies, the ACT Fleet Manager is to provide reports to the relevant Agency Head and to the Flest.Management Liaison Committee in January and July each year. These reports address utilisation rates, costs of fleet services and effective use of the fleet.
